Fan Jinghua: Weak Pillars

Weak Pillars In Memory of “a few” childrenThose children, jaws in palms, eyelids heavy As if the whole world is for their arms to pillarFall to sleep behind their own windowsWhen the structure collapsesThen, daylight pierces the square eyes of the institutional mansionsAnd doves fly across the sky, mutelyAs men, bustling around, believe in progress and necessary forgetfulness

I welcome you
